MENLO PARK, CALIF. – November 15, 2011 – Syncplicity, a leader in cloud based file management solutions for businesses and individuals, today announced the immediate availability of Syncplicity for Android. With the 100 percent native Android app all the files and folders a user needs – from their existing folders on their PC’s and Macs, cloud apps like Google Docs and Salesforce, and on premise apps like SharePoint – are accessible and shareable using Android 2.x phones and tablets.

Syncplicity delivers unparalleled convenience and protection because users do not have to think ahead about moving or storing files from where they already keep them in order to gain ubiquitous mobile access. With Syncplicity, users have their own secure Virtual Private Cloud where they work naturally using the applications and folders they are used to. File changes, no matter where they happen, are automatically synced across all their computers, available in cloud and on-premise applications, accessible on their mobile devices, backed up with version control, and easily shareable with colleagues.

Syncplicity gives business of all sizes the administrative features they need to make it easy for users to access, share and back-up files while enforcing policies over control and security of data. The new Android app continues Syncplicity’s drive to provide exceptional and unique security and administration features including the ability for users or admins to remote wipe files and enable client-side data encryption for files on mobile devices.

“The Syncplicity Android App helped me look great in front of a client within hours of downloading it,” said John M. Johansen, Partner at Agile Technologies, LLC. “I was sitting with a client with a hard-copy of an NDA but the client wanted to pass an electronic copy to legal for a quick review. I just accessed the file from Syncplicity on my Droid and sent her a link to the file in an email. My client was impressed, saying ‘Wow, now that’s agile…’. In today’s business environment speed and agility are everything, and Syncplicity for Android helps me access the files I need when it matters most. Even if I don’t have access to my work computer or remember ahead of time that I need them.”

“We are focused on helping our clients become more effective, improve efficiency and save money by deploying innovative cloud technologies, said Isidoro Reyes de Zuloaga, CEO and Managing Director at Cloud Partners. “As both a Syncplicity and Google Apps reseller, having Syncplicity available on Android phones and tablets further rounds out the secure end-to-end cloud and mobile solutions we can offer our clients. As Syncplicity Business Edition users ourselves, our employees love it, too!”

“We are passionate about the future that cloud and mobile computing offer businesses and individuals and are laser-focused on making file access, sharing and backup easy and effortless for users while providing the security and control that businesses and power users expect,” said Jeff Schultz, Chief Marketing Officer at Syncplicity. “Syncplicity for Android continues the strong momentum we have seen from the release of our native iPhone and iPad apps earlier this year and is another example of how we can satisfy both the users and the IT professionals that support them.”
